Overview
History and symptoms
According to the KDOQI Clinical Practice Guidelines on Hypertension and Antihypertensive Agents in Chronic Kidney Disease[1], the most important clinical clues that should raise the suspicion of renal artery disease are the triad:
|
Additional clinical clues that suggest renal artery disease are listed below[1]:
- Age of hypertension < 30 years and > 55 years
- Abrupt onset of hypertension
- Accelerated hypertension that was previously well-controlled
- Refractory hypertension to 3 anti-hypertensive medications
- Malignant hypertension
- Smoking
- Abdominal bruit
- Flash pulmonary edema
- Generalized atherosclerosis obliterans
- Asymmetric kidney sizes
- AKI when ACE-I or ARB are used for treatment
